Betting on FC Lorient
Lorient lost to Reims by a score of 4-2 in the previous match, their second defeat in the last five games. Its balance sheet continues to be positive, with a total of 35 points, the result of 10 wins, five draws and six defeats.
One thing in their favor is that since November they have not registered consecutive defeats, so it is unlikely to happen here. On the other hand, they will try to recover from that setback in this game, taking advantage of the fact that they will be at home, since they have not lost in their last two games at home, and have registered 50% of the total number of victories in the campaign here.
Probable line-up (4-2-3-1): Vito Mannone; Gedeon Kalulu, Julien Laporte, Montassar Talbi, Vincent Le Goff; Bonke Innocent, Enzo Le Fée; Stéphane Diarra, Julien Ponceau, Théo Le Bris; Ibrahima Kone
Betting on Angers SCO
Angers cannot be a feared opponent at this stage of the campaign as they have a record of two wins, two draws and 17 defeats, which translates into the fewest wins and the most games lost. With the eight points obtained, they are in last place overall and therefore in last place in the relegation table.
The team has the worst defense, having allowed 47 goals so far, which is the main reason for its poor results. They have 13 consecutive defeats at the moment, with their last victory recorded in September against Nice by a score of 0-1.
Probable line-up (4-4-2): Paul Bernardoni; Yan Valery, Cédric Hountondji, Miha Blazic, Lilian Raolisoa; Amine Salama, Batista Mendy, Nabil Bentaleb, Himad Abdelli; Adrien Hunou, Abdallah Sima
JefeBet Prediction
A closer look at the statistics of both teams reveals Lorient’s clear superiority, making a victory for them more likely. Angers have a poor away record this season, having won only 1 of their 10 away games and being the second-worst team in that aspect.
Prediction: Lorient wins by a score of 3-0.
